QUESTION: How do you BREAK the 'Law' in order to ENFORCE the
'Law'?
Attached below is the official "Memorandum Of Understanding" (MOU) that the
Washington Traffic Safety Commission is peddling to area Law Enforcement
Agencies (LEO's) in order to promote WTSC's "Zero Tolerance" seat-belt "Click it
or Ticket" campaign. This is the proverbial 'Smoking Gun' that shows the level
of tyranny and corruption in your public officials. This MOU sets forth the
QUOTA requirements for area LEO's to grab their 'fair share' of Federally funded
grant monies --money that actually originated from the back's of honest working,
law-abiding Citizens and their labors -- typically called 'taxes', i.e.,
'pecuniary contributions'.
The sweat from your brow is now going to be used to enforce this overtime law
enforcement seat belt blitz emphasis patrol, and in the process, participating
LEO's are going to enhance their revenue, as well as that of the local District
Courts and the State of Washington to the tune of $86 bucks for every seat-belt
ticket they write during this "Click it or Ticket" campaign. How so? According
to RCW 3.50.100 "Revenue-Disposition" concerning municipal courts, and RCW
3.62.020 "Income of Court" concerning District Courts, 32% of all fines
collected are remitted monthly to the State Treasurer in Olympia.
This is nothing but a REVENUE ENHANCEMENT SCAM designed by lawyer-legislators
and their pettyfoggershyster lackeys of the bench and the bar for their criminal
'JUST-US' system, and has nothing to do with your safety or saving your life!
Not only is this going on in the State of Washington, but Nationwide, as all 50
States have, to one degree or another, signed on for this Federal dole on the
dull roll of the leach patrol.
You should be incensed! Notice that this MOU sets forth an enforcement time
period for writing tickets between May 20th and June 2nd, and a MINIMUM QUOTA
with a "DESIRED OUTCOME", but that the official Legislative Act, i.e., 'The Law'
enabling enforcement and ticketing for not wearing a seat belt doesn't actually
go into "effect" until June 13th!
Therefore, we repeat the question: "How do you BREAK the 'Law' in order to
ENFORCE the 'Law'? Notwithstanding, any ticket written before the law takes
effect is null and void.
